Close-Up on Ambulance Service Estimation in Indonesia: Monte Carlo Simulation Study.

Background: Emergency medical services have a pivotal role in giving timely and appropriate responses to emergency events caused by medical, natural, or human-caused disasters. To provide adequate resources for the emergency services, such as ambulances, it is necessary to understand the demand for such services. In Indonesia, estimates of demand for emergency services cannot be obtained easily due to a lack of published literature or official reports concerning the matter.

Fractured systems: a literature review of OR/MS methods applied to orthopaedic care settings and treatments.

Orthopaedic systems are facing an impending wave of increased pressures as a result of global ageing populations. This is compounded by the current stresses these services face, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and increasing burden of musculoskeletal conditions. It is vital that measures are taken to alleviate the pressures on these systems, to ensure timely and quality access to care for patients.

Modelling changes in healthcare demand through geographic data extrapolation.

Stay Well Plans are a new programme of care offered to frail and elderly people in Newport. In 2016 a roll out the programme to be offered in all five counties serviced by Aneurin Bevan University Health Board was planned. This paper presents the data analysis and modelling used to determine the programme's effects on the demand of the wider system, and the effects of a Gwent-wide roll out.
